    Is Pagan ham a country ham? I am not looking for a ham like prociutto or the Smithfield ham which does not need cooking. Thank you.

  • Pagan Ham in California

    I lived in Norfolk, VA several years ago and Pagan was the only hame to buy. Does anyone know if anyplace in Calif. sells them.

    Smithfield bought Gwaltney, and the Pagan ham is now under Gwaltney instead of Smithfield. Found this out from a butcher in Hampton when visiting my folks and found one.

    I've moved back to Virginia from Oklahoma to spend this Christmas with my grandkids. I've been looking for a Pagan ham like I use to cook for the Holidays, but having no luck at the Richmond local stores. Do you have a vendor here in Richmond that still sell the Pagan hams.

  • Where to buy in NC

    I'd suggest contacting Smithfield directly -- a quick google hasn't helped me except to get me to the link I referenced in my earlier comment ... which for now says these are out of stock. Good luck.
